A stilt walker is a skilled performer that wears leg stilts under a costume and is able to interact with the crowd standing much higher than an average person.
A static costume character does not walk around and cannot wave to guests or pose for photos, which is why a stilt walker is popular at parades and outdoor events.
In New Jersey, you can see stilt walkers at community events, shopping center promotions, and patriotic holidays.
In the era when event entertainment has to work in crowded public spaces, a stilt walker is one of the most effective entertainment choices.
• High visibility: You can spot a stilt walker from across the parking lot, a mall plaza, or the parade route; therefore, they can serve as a great marketing tool.
• Photo-friendly entertainment: Tall characters in costumes provide a unique photo opportunity that will please everyone.
• Versatility in theming: There are stilt walkers in a variety of costumes, ranging from a patriot to circus characters to fantasy characters.
“People notice a stilt walker before they notice almost anything else at an event. It’s instant atmosphere.”
Common feedback from NJ event entertainment providers
1. Instant Attention from Guests
A performer 7 to 8 feet tall can never go unnoticed and will work great at outdoor festivals, openings of new stores, and malls’ promotional events.
2. Good Choice for Various Events
It is easy to find stilt walkers for birthdays, corporate events, parades, and various seasonal parties, such as 4th of July.
3. Take Advantage of Photo Opportunities
Stilt walkers will give great photo opportunities that guests will post on social media networks.
4. Low Setup Needed
As opposed to inflatable rentals, a stilt walker needs no additional setup; all that he or she needs is enough space to walk.
1. Make sure your venue allows enough space to safely walk; stilt walkers prefer outdoor venues or large halls with high ceilings indoors.
2. Choose the costume theme to suit your event, such as a patriot, circus, fantasy, or a particular character request.
3. Check the performer’s credentials and ask for references from the past events in NJ.
4. Make sure the performer has liability insurance since stilt walking has some physical risks and reputable entertainment companies insure their performers.
5. Arrange the performer’s schedule, for example, a stilt walker can walk for 30-60 minutes at your event.
6. Let the performer know the condition of the grounds well in advance since stairs, uneven terrain, or low doorways may restrict the movement of the performer.
7. Arrange the crowd flow and make sure there is enough room for the performer to safely walk at your event.
